Highly Integrated SKY66431 SiP Delivers
Robust Solution for Massive IoT Communication Systems; Simplifies
Design and Improves Battery Life
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: SWKS), and Sequans
Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS), today introduced the SKY66431, a
5G Massive IoT SiP (system-in-package) solution. This
next-generation SiP combines Sequans’ Monarch 2 modem with
Skyworks’ industry-leading RF front-end solution, creating the
world’s smallest LTE-M/NB-IoT connectivity platform in a single
package.
Essential to critical infrastructure, low-power wide-area
network (LPWAN) products meet stringent operational requirements
for durability, battery lifespan and reliability. Designed to
address the increasing demand for form-factor driven cellular LPWAN
end points, the SKY66431 is ideally suited for utility meters,
asset trackers, security and alert systems and other
battery-powered devices such as wearable medical and fleet
management. The number of installed LPWAN devices is expected to
reach 2.4 billion by 20261.
The SKY66431 is a highly integrated multi-band, multi-chip SiP
supporting 5G Massive IoT platforms, offering high performance
connectivity with ultra-low power consumption. Its native 23 dBm
front-end module leverages Skyworks’ RF design and advanced
packaging expertise that optimizes reliability in demanding
environments and allows for extremely small footprint designs while
maintaining simplified PCB design rules. With SiP form
factor-enabling miniaturization and fully encapsulated silver-free
conformal shielding, the SKY66431 package is a key differentiator
enabling ultra-compact, flexible and robust end-product
designs.
The SKY66431 is being certified by a number of industry and
regulatory agencies, as well as multiple network operators. This
SiP is available now for select customers, with general
availability expected in the first quarter of 2023.
“As modern connected devices evolve, Skyworks’ extensive
expertise within this market and advanced packaging technologies
allow us to drive improvements in power consumption, size and
advanced connectivity features to meet the rigorous performance
requirements of our customers,” said Stefan Fulga, senior director
of marketing for IoT and emerging products at Skyworks. “The
SKY66431 SiP enables simplified, yet high performance designs that
operate reliably worldwide, accelerating time-to-market for our
customers.”
“The new SKY66431 SiP is a compelling IoT connectivity
solution,” said Georges Karam, Sequans’ CEO. “It is a
comprehensive, all-in-one platform combining the technologies of
two industry leaders who have included all of the critical
components needed in one powerful, tiny SiP that is ideal for a
wide range of IoT applications, from wearables, including medical
devices and trackers, to sophisticated smart utility meters,
requiring advanced packaging and capabilities.”
